Re: [ga] Chair Elections

[Hugh Dierker <hdierker2204@xxxxxxxxx>]

Great idea Joe. Now all we would need is a vote to make acclamation 
legitimate;-)
   
  With a vote we can have dissent. And in the end, will have proper claim to 
have followed the rules and then bent over backwards to be more fair. The 
arguments opposed will then have very little weight and we will not have to be 
distracted.

Acclamation! Thats my opinion. If we must vote - the lets vote. But 
if we can avoid this song and dance then acclaim.
